Chemistry is a conceptual subject and, in order to explain many of the concepts, teachers use models to describe the microscopic world and relate it to the macroscopic properties of matter. This can lead to problems, as a student's every-day experiences of the world and use of language can contradict the ideas put forward in chemical science. These titles have been designed to help tackle this issue of misconceptions. Part 1 deals with the theory, by including information on some of the key alternative conceptions that have been uncovered by research; ideas about a variety of teaching approaches that may prevent students acquiring some common alternative conceptions; and general ideas for assisting students with the development of appropriate scientific conceptions. Part 2 provides strategies for dealing with some of the misconceptions that students have, by including ready to use classroom resources including copies of probes that can be used to identify ideas held by students; some specific exercises aimed at challenging some of the alternative ideas; and classroom activities that will help students to construct the chemical concepts required by the curriculum. Used together, these two books will provide a good theoretical underpinning of the fundamentals of chemistry. Trialled in schools throughout the UK, they are suitable for teaching ages 11-18.

This experiment is easily done if a small flask be weighed and about-5 gram of powdered calcium carbonate put in the flask, which is reweighed. The flask is now fitted with an indiarubber cork having two holes through which pass a tube bent at right angles and a drying tube containing calcium chloride respectively. The rightangled tube must be closed by a piece of indiarubber tubing fitted with a clamp. The cork is now removed and two small test-tubes containing concentrated hydrochloric acid are suspended by means of fine cotton in the flask, the chalk having been previously covered with distilled water. The cork is then refitted, care being taken to keep the tubes containing the acid upright. The whole apparatus is then reweighed, after which the acid in the test-tubes is upset on the chalk. When all the chalk has dissolved the clamp is removed from the piece of indiarubber tubing and air drawn through the apparatus by means of an aspirator. The clamp is then replaced and the whole apparatus reweighed. The difference between the second and third weighings gives the weight of carbonic acid gas given off, and from this the percentage loss of weight can be calculated. This should be 44 per cent. The class can next try to find the weight of a litre of carbonic acid gas. This can be done by fitting up an apparatus similar to that shown in Fig. 24. The calcium carbonate is placed in the flask with a little distilled water and the test-tubes are filled with concentrated hydrochloric acid and suspended in the flask, which together with the drying tube is then weighed. The drying tube is then connected to the Winchester, the acid is upset over the chalk and the clamp connecting the Winchester with t...

Why did Gandhi hate iodine (I, 53)? Why did the Japanese kill Godzilla with missiles made of cadmium (Cd, 48)? How did radium (Ra, 88) nearly ruin Marie Curie's reputation? And why did tellurium (Te, 52) lead to the most bizarre gold rush in history? The periodic table is a crowning scientific achievement, but it's also a treasure trove of adventure, greed, betrayal, and obsession. The fascinating tales in The Disappearing Spoon follow elements on the table as they play out their parts in human history, finance, mythology, conflict, the arts, medicine, and the lives of the (frequently) mad scientists who discovered them. Adapted for a middle grade audience, the young readers edition of The Disappearing Spoon offers the material in a simple, easy-to-follow format, with approximately 20 line drawings and sidebars throughout. Students, teachers, and burgeoning science buffs will love learning about the history behind the chemistry.
